Fisrt of all, let's get the PC response out of the way to that
@Enkryption:
I apologize for making you upset and feeling like my jabs at the Shizuyama people is done out of spite and petty malice towards them and their culture. Since it bothers you, I shall refraim from doing so in future OOC posts.
Now on to my actual, personal thoughts on the matter:
These aren't real people. They're fictional beings ina fictional world. I don't know how much you, as a roleplaye,r immerse yourself in the setting, but I personally don't get overly invested or drawn into a world.
As for them being "pressed on all fronts", coming from a perspective of what reasonable people would prioritize in a war-situation, I don't feel like my comments are unwarranted. They've lost the vast majority of their warriors in a sungle battle and are now short-handed, yet instead of trying to form some kind of semblance of resistance, they waste their resources on pursuing goals and beliefs which will, in the end, net them absoluitely nothing. This isn't just a mockery of them and their beliefs, it's a commentary on their lack of understanding what is actually important to prioritize. Especially since its the Vrjans who are harming, stealing and subjugating their home and people.
But hey. That's just me. I'm sorry you were offended by silly/stupid joke, and since you've aske,d I'll make sure not to make them again.
Sound good?
